Election Matters- Julia Orchilles

  Blog Post: Election Matters  By: Julia Orchilles      Presenting a group project can be a daunting task, but with the right approach, my classmates and I can turn our assigned topics into engaging and informative presentations. I am going to be giving an overview of how my classmates and I presented and also discussing things that they could have done better. Our given topics from Professor Sinkoff are research contributions, American vs. world perspectives, local and national associations, history/overview, and interviews. 1. Research Devoted to the Topics and Their Contributions Highlight Key Findings: My classmates who presented this topic summarized the most impactful research in their area.

       Our recent group project focused on the theme “elections matter,” addressing topics like gender equality, education policies, immigration policies, and the election process. Each group was tasked with creating a brochure on the theme and giving a presentation.

  Public speaking is a skill we all know is valuable, but let’s be honest – for most of us, it’s intimidating. Whether it's presenting in front of classmates or speaking to a large group, that feeling of nervousness can be hard to shake. Recently, my classmates and I gave presentations on the topic of public speaking, and I found myself learning a lot, not just from my own group but from the others as well. From organizing ideas to delivering a message clearly, these presentations taught me lessons that are definitely going to help me in both my academic and professional future. In this post, I’ll break down the key points I picked up from each group’s presentation and explain how they’ve already started improving my confidence when it comes to public speaking. Whether you’re an experienced speaker or someone who, like me, is working on finding their voice, these tips can make all the difference. One of the first things I learned was how important it is to structure your speech. ...

    Eduardo Hernandez      Each chapter unveiled a unique facet of public speaking providing insights that would shape my understanding of this vital skill. Id like to share my thoughts on each chapter particularly highlighting where I found joy and where I faced challenges. Group 1. They beautifully traced the history of public speaking illustrating how it has transformed over time. I particularly enjoyed learning about the influence of technology on communication. I appreciated the emphasis on authenticity it resonated with me because it underscored the importance of being genuine in front of an audience. This chapter set the stage for understanding public speaking not just as a skill but as an art form that evolves with societal changes. Group 2. I found the practical tips for overcoming anxiety particularly useful. Techniques such as visualization and positive affirmations struck a chord with me. I remember feeling a sense of empowerment when I practiced the...

I’ve never like presenting I usually find a way to not present a still get a grade but this class is helping me come over this fear and I love it for that. I can say that the presentations that were given in class by the students were really good and amazing. before taking this class I thought I wasn’t gonna like it at all but after being in groups and getting the hang of the speech class, this is actually one of my favorite classes to attend out of the five class that I’m taking and I’m happy that I’m actually learning for me because most classes I don’t learn from but this one I actually learn and I’m actual...
